I know the dark blue underpants are more show accurate, but I'm just going to leave the light ones on him. I'm not about to risk messing up my figures, and I actually like the light blue ones better. It makes the belt stand out.
IKR? & also, the Super7 Panthro has cat-like eyes while the Mattel version has a clear round pupil. So I like 7 version better & the color of his draws matter not to me.
Thanks for the tip, I used the popping-off leg method and definitely time saving .... only downside is popping the leg back on will require some heating and finesse, but not too hard.
Why are these figs so expensive? They look like regular metal figs to me
Thank you for trying Super 7’s method and then showing the much easier method of pulling the legs off, followed by the shorts, and lots of heat!
Your Jackalman still has inverted calves, haha.
Well that was a juvenile and crappy comment. He knows the calves on the Mattel and Super7 ones have that issue, and getting a corrected calf wasn't part of the plan. So laughing at him taking the time to help us collectors out was extremely disrespectful.
And? That's not something they're fixing and I've never felt the need to do it myself.
@@Chalor. Actually it was "part of the plan" Brian flyn said all the issues from Mattel would be fixed when we gave him our money over a year but he lied through his teeth. 😒
@@Chalor. BF said it fixes it, it didn't.
@@ToyBro Aesthetically it looks bad, I recommend doing it.
I completely agree Toy Bro. We have to get head sculpts of the other Thundercats with glowing eyes. It's too iconic not to have. I still haven't heard how those of us who ordered from Big Bad Toy Store or other online retailers are going to get the booster pack.
I saw sumwhere they're gonna just send it to us
BBTS will be shipping out the booster packs as soon as they get them. I also spoke with Rudy at Super 7 and he said the customer service dept. will send out the booster pack if you purchased them from a third party seller like ebay or a con, just have to send a pic of the figures with your name tagged in it .

Also, Jackalmans "upper" shins are reversed and on the opposite leg to be anatomically correct. The mattel version had this problem and Super 7 repeated this mistake as they copied the mattel build perfectly... including the assembly error.
cool, especially the glow in the dark gimmick...but I'm alright with my figures..got some PM, that Wave 2 S7 TC's sold out & asking if they'd open again..dont know why people wait, if you want it, secure it...
I finally got round to doing this and yeah it's barely worth it, so easy to damage the figure. And the blue doesn't even match, so i should have just painted the "Thunderpants" lol
I bought these figures from third parties, sent an email to the super7 contact about 3 days ago, and nothing from them to answer me. I hope they answer me soon.
I sent them an email a few days ago as well and heard nothing yet.
@@chrisalan457 sorry the delay to answer. I will not able to repond that time. I sent all the infos today. Thank you!
I hope wave 2 is better prepared for the public, I hope we don’t get these packs with every wave
Nah, I'm pretty sure this is an isolated incident. Wave 2 was supposed to come out some point last year, then it was hopefully going to come out by the very end of last year, then Brian was hoping at the very beginning of this year. But the Chinese New year is making things take much longer for Super7. With being such a small company and making very intricate figures, they don't have the power to get things handled super quickly. I'm just thinking the extra long wait will insure everything is good to go. But I'm not sure why the Turtles stuff has gone a lot more quicker/easier than ThunderCats.
Super7 is trash, so don't hope too hard. Especially since wave 3 is coming out before wave 2, because wave 2 is being done by the same crappy factory that "supposedly" screwed up wave 1. 😒
So yea…… the torso snapped after pulling the legs off because it still required pressure. This was a pain in the ass… second time around I’m just cutting the shorts off. 😩
Good I've got the Mattel one , I'm not bothering about those extras accessories the super7 one comes with. So , I won't need to stress myself thinking I'm gonna brake my toy. Good job and great video! 👍
This is absolutely asinine, Super7 is the worst. And all this for an outdated figure that won't even match the pinless wave 3 figures. 🥴
Maybe if you were try to separate him ij his waste perhaps?! 🤔
Mattel ones way better and why that super7 price?! Re-used sculpts, with cheaper plastic, and double the price?!
U sir are a genius...check my vid i also had the idea of taken the lefs but they just wouldn't budge..so i made a balls of the whole thing..ending up cutting of the shorts
It's the head of panthro clone mummra created with hammerhand spirit
I feel lucky that I have the Mattel version of Panthro and Jackal Man.
I missed out on the Mattel Lion-O. I bought the Super7 version from BBTS. Naturally my Super7 Lion-O has locked joints, weird eyes and paint spray. Everything that I have come to expect from a Super7 action figure.
If you complain to bigbad they will give you a refund and let you keep the figure. Which shows how horrible super7 is for bbts to just take the loss. 😒
I was lucky. My Lion-O is perfect
I like the lighter blue Pantro pants. Do we have to order that pack or just wait for it in the mail.
Same here, the lighter blue trucks pop more. Plus I have the Mattel ones, so no need to do this at all. As far as how to get them, Brian has stated multiple times in videos on here that everyone that ordered these will have them shipped to them. I'm just not sure about that whatsoever. If you ordered directly from Super7, then I wouldn't be all that concerned. But, if you ordered from anywhere else, that's a logistical nightmare. And I don't put any faith in the communication, money spent on shipping these out, and all the time involved.
I ordered from BBTS, so that's as close to ordering directly from them as it gets. But then I'm thinking about all the ppl that purchased off of eBay. Like the certified sellers that happen to have an eBay store. Then you got ppl that sold theirs already. So this pack will be going to them and not all the new owners. Then all the ppl that have moved since then. It's just extremely overwhelming. I hope ppl having difficulties will be able to contact Super7 to get theirs.
If you ordered from S7 direct they'll just mail it. Supposedly their approved retailers will be doing the same. If you got them off the secondhand market, email S7 customer service.
I have the Matty Collector wave 1 figs. When will my booster pack show up? Are they mailing it? Do I have to contact them?
are you kidding? this is only for the Super7 line. Matty didn't have any of these issues except for the Jackalman leg issue, which both versions have.
I guess you could say that… Panthro has ✨Thunder Thighs✨ 😆
The wait for waves 2-4 is absolutely ridiculous.
This was painful to watch. I don't think I'm gonna do it.
With panthro pants I took it out with my hand no tools with my hand
Is it possible to swap Jackalman's still-reversed shins?
yeah, use your choices of "heat-up process" hot water or hand held air heater. Then heat up the cafes, pop them off. Heat up the feet, pop them off. put the feet on the correct ankles. Then heat up cafes and put them on the correct sides. And SHAZAM your Jackalman will be ready to do dirty deeds done dirt cheep. enjoy👍
@@elrayoxephier1393 sweet! i gotta do this. thanks for the reply.
@@MechaWrecka be sure to take your time. And let me know what you think. and if you don't like it you can always put it back the way is was.
No worries👍 have fun with it.
the funny thing with all of this is i did catch this with mine. But i saw that a few people had commented about this. so i went and looked at mine, and i am wondering if its a mixed bag with this? because mine seems fine. i mite switch this around too, just to see if it looks better.
It’s good that Super 7 at least listens to fan complaints. Now another option is painting these flaws if you’re good with a paint brush and don’t like taking your figures apart.
No, they dont. Otherwise they would be pinless and look like the prototypes instead of mattel KOs.
The Benny Hill music would have been perfect while you were putting those pants back on.
Trust me it was considered! I always gets slapped with copyright flags if I even TRY to use music that is licensed so I erred on the side of caution instead.
How does the BBts buyers get this Pack? Does anyone know?
I got an email from them saying super7 has my info and they'll send it to me.
@@frixos0073yep...i did too finally! They are on their way. And then Super7 re-releases Panthro with the correct colour shorts. I guess they did that for the Thundertank. I preordered that one and the Liono. I will use these for the Thundertank display.
nice thumbnail 😆
Disgusting
@@luistrak lol 😆
Anyone have an issue popping the legs back in? I can’t for the life of me get his left leg to pop back in place, I got lucky with the right side. Should I just heat the thigh? Or just the joint at the hip? I got 3 blisters already from squeezing and twisting and pushing but I can’t get it to pop in place.... someone give me advise please.
My legs won’t go back on🤦🏽♂️🤦🏽♂️
Heat and some serious force.
I got my "Booster Pack" a couple of weeks ago, but I've been putting off doing this, until today. It took me a little under and hour. It was ridiculously difficult. I just cut off the light blue shorts to begin with. Stretching those new shorts over the feet sucked, but not as bad as trying to get it over the calves and thighs. I did try and pop the legs off, but it felt like the legs might bend or break due to how much heat I had been applying, so I went back to shimmying them on with my fingers and heat. The screwdriver tool they showed looked like it was going to damage the shorts, so I just used my fingers. I actually almost pulled my nail off trying. Finally, I just heated and yanked, and I got it. Those shorts are super durable. It is complete garbage that we have to put this on ourselves. An extra head sculpt (the same one we already have, just glow paint dotted on the eyes) is not enough compensation IMO.
Thanks for the video. I have the new pack. I am leaving it for now. But, glad Super 7 gave us the pack for our choice.👍
Yes! With popping off Panthro's legs, that's the obvious option. So when I saw those instructions, they were just very baffling. Not to mention it requires three arms since you have to consistently keep heating it up according to them lol.
11:50 - Noticing that you heated up the peg also. I've accidentally got pegs heated up in the process before with warming up the holes. Trying to get those peg pieces to go back in, they were about to tear off cause of the gumminess and pressure. Maybe it just varies from part to part, but I always thought it's only beneficial to heat up the side that's getting plugged.
are we going to get this pack if we only bought Panthro & Jackalman and not the entire wave 1?
I only got Lion-O and Pantrho and ordered through BBTS so I'm wondering if I get anything also.
@@everettmiller7738 I bought from BBTS too (they are still in my pile of loot) and I think BBTS will send this pack together with the figures.. hopefully..
Great Effin Review
Just noticed the rocksteady at the end frame!! Can’t wait for that review
Super7 fumbles more than they are worth dealing with. I’m done supporting anything Super7 does anymore. They act like their job is done once they secure customers’ orders. Then it’s off to the next thing they can sell and not focus on fulfilling previous orders with product worthy of their price in a timely manner. Some nice releases but I’m no longer interested.
"They act like their job is done once they secure customers’ orders."
If that were true, this booster pack wouldn't exist.
@@TheBigBigSean completely wrong. The only reason they reacted was because of customer backlash. They 100% wouldn’t have done a thing without the massive percent of customers who voiced dissatisfaction. You either are ignorant of that fact or willfully dishonest.
@@JustinTyme33 Pretty much.
@@JustinTyme33 See that's where you're wrong, people complained about the pants and jacklemans neck coloring. None mentioned the colors of the weapons yet super7 actually addressed it in advance and decided to add the fix. now If they were shit company like you think they are, they would silently ignore the colors of the weapon to save money but they didn't.
I thought the main fix on Jackleman was going to be the reverse ankles? I guess I must have misheard that.
Super7 is pretending that didn’t happen.
Yeah, it actually was one of the calves that was incorrect. But nah, that was never a part of the correction. So they're just the same as the Mattel ones. For me, it really doesn't bother me. As much of a perfectionist and noticing every little detail, I didn't even know when I got the original release from Mattel that there was a duplicate calf.
@@onjohns1
Brian addressed that in an interview last year, but yeah, it was still a thing that happened. When you don't have tons of money (like compared to Hasbro or even NECA), it can be very difficult barking out orders and such with the factories that can just drop you and make way more money with some other company that "complains" less. It's just a lot tougher than a lot of ppl know. Doesn't mean they don't _extremely_ care, it just can be very rough.
Ya, I don't think I specifically asked Bryan about it, I thought he said something about fixing the calve in the update video, but that was a while ago.
It makes the figure lean big time, mine will never stand up right. I would rather have that than the fur, but the simple fact they are doing anything is really stand up on their part.
I ordered mine through BBTS how do I get mine ?
From what I understand they're going to be distributing to their customers.
I got an email from BBTS saying super7 has my info and they'll send it to me.
Thank you. Great video as usual :)
Excelent
Think I'd rather just cut the pants off rather than go through all that and risk damaging the figure.
That's what i thought as well.. just cut it off might seems easier..
I did. I cut mine off. Still had to shimmy the new ones on though.
I think the light blue looks better than the dark one. I'm gonna keep it.
Ha. I was fine with it, but I had to do it to see how this went. I may swap it back at some point though. Assuming I want to do all this again lol.
Using a blow dryer always runs the risk of warping the surrounding ABS plastic. Boiled water is always the safest bet from my experience. With regards to reattaching the legs...heating up the leg pegs is unnecessary and not recommended as it'll only add to the struggle. Jackalman's harness unclasps at the center red part. At least the Mattel version does. And lastly swapping Jackalman's calves and shins weren't hard at all.
Seconding this! Heating the leg pegs is not advisable at all; they’ll squish and resist against popping back into the socket, rather than staying firm and letting the socket move around them. There’s also a chance you can tear the peg if you apply rotation when pushing the legs back on.
I would also suggest holding your thumb around the figures “undercarriage” when pulling legs off. I’ve had Mattel MOTUC figures split at this point. Giving it some support with your thumb may help with that.
Well said all true and valid points!! I was beginning to get too wordy and needed to condense what I had to say 😅👍🏼
Size matters ... and he got non. Mew.
I got mine from BBTS. Will they being sending them?
Yes, all orders will get them.
@@ToyBro that's good news!
Where do we apply for this pack? Is it too late?
depends on where you bought it. If it bought it from a person, you might be SOL, unless Quality Toy Review is accurate. BBTS emailed all purchasers and had Super7 automatically send it out unless you told them not to.
👏🏻😎👍🏻👍🏻
well... super7 busy with their 3d printed brick premium prices i-reacted-surprised figures... they messed with the unpainted parts with it
Sadly I bought mine on the secondary market so won't have a way of getting this pack :(
Go to their website. They have a way of getting it.
Yeah go to their site and email customer service.
@@ToyBro In the UK?
still crap
